地产咨询公司Atisreal UK的项目经理戴维?克拉克(David Clark)是该公司两
只足球队的组织者之一。他表示，运动的主要目的是寻求乐趣与强身健体，但
它还有其它的好处：“这让他们有机会认识其它部门的同事，一起放松。这会
促进公司内部感情。” 他补充说，团队运动通常可以带来企业用其它方式难以获得的凝聚体验。
公司提倡团队运动的另一个原因是，这样做的成本较低。
调查发现，参加体育运动的员工在参与度和工作满意度方面得分较高，压力较小，而且，运动似乎有益于留住员工。
【参考答案】：
发or many managers, “team building” means two days spent doing
role-playing exercises in a bleak conference hotel far from head office. But perhaps a more effective way to build teams is simply by playing real team sports, such as soccer, cricket or softball.
David Clark, a project manager at Atisreal UK, a property consultancy, is one of the organizers of the company’s two soccer teams. He says the main point is fun and fitness but it also has other perks: “It gives the guys a chance to meet and relax with their peers from other departments. It promotes cross-department relations.” He adds that team sports in general can deliver the kind of bonding experience companies struggle to generate in other ways.
Another reason companies are keen to promote team sports is that team sports are relatively cheap.
An investigation reveals that workers who participate in sports score
highly on engagement and job satisfaction, have lower levels of stress, and there seems to be a positive effect on retention too

尽管我坚信，企业家是后天造就的，而非天生的，但经营一家属于自己的公司更多是响应一种召唤，而不是从事一种循规蹈矩的职业。这条路不存在标准化的培训，像其他许多职业那样，比如音乐、艺术或者医学。职业技能、家庭背景、社会关系，这些都不如对独立和冒险的渴望来得重要。
【参考答案】：Even though it is my firm belief that entrepreneurs are made, not born, running your own business is more of a calling than a conventional career. There is no standard training, as there is for so many other vocations, like music, art or medicine. Qualifications, family, connections – these are much less influential than the desire for independence and an appetite for adventure.

阅读理解 Passage 1 Romantic love is one of the most enticing (迷人的) topics around. Just about every movie, TV show, and country-music song contains some element of romance. For many, romantic relationships are by far the most important in their lives. As a society, we long for intimacy. We grow up believing that if we "just meet the right person" we will be happy. This message is popularized by modern media. It is perhaps one of the most destructive messages around. Quentin Crisp says: "The consuming desire of most human beings is to deliberately plant their whole life in the hands of some other person. I would describe this method of searching for happiness as immature ..." When we feel unhappy it is natural to start searching for the cause of our distress. There is nothing wrong with this, but it becomes a problem when we start searching outside of ourselves. We are taught that if we are happily "coupled" we won't have problems. It is therefore natural to blame our partner for our "aloneness." The consequences of this belief are enormously self-destructive. Romantic love is exciting, but what happens when the romance wears off? Experts estimate that romantic sexual attractions last only 18 months to two years. Using love or sex as a drug will only prevent us from reaching maturity. We do need excitement and stimulation and joy and intimacy. But in mature love we are concerned with our loved one's joy and fulfillment. The satisfaction comes not from our own immediate gratification, but from the joy of giving to the other person, and watching them grow and thrive. If you are single, the best thing you can do to prepare for a life-long loving relationship is to work on getting your own needs met. The first thing to do is to start identifying what they are. For instance: you long for affection and need a hug. Have you thought of asking a friend to hug you? You will be amazed what will happen if you start asking people directly to meet your needs. You will get some negative responses, but for the most part you will find that people are happy to help you. Many of us were taught our needs are wrong. Our needs are not wrong. We get into difficulty when we try to meet our needs in indirect ways. It is not that we shouldn't enjoy the excitement of a new relationship or love interest; we get into difficulty when we think we will get all our needs met from this one "magical" person. 1. What does Quentin Crisp think of the popular search for happiness?____ [A] The search is not sensible. [B] The media should be responsible for the search. [C] You can surely find happiness without the help of some other person. [D] It is advisable to make such a search together with some other person. 2. When one is unhappy, he tends to ____. [A] make himself happily coupled with another [B] search for the cause of his distress inside himself [C] search for the cause of his distress with his partner [D] think it's his beloved one that causes his problems

You should write at least 120 words, and base your composition on the outline given in Chinese below. 1. 有人喜欢养宠物，也有人反对养宠物，他们都有各自的道理 2. 我的看法 On Keeping Pets 【参考答案】： In almost every neighborhood, there are people who like
pets and people who don't. The former group of people think that pets are good and helpful companions. Some of them even go so far as saying that animals are also human, and their rights should be respected. Those who hate pets say that animals are noisy, dirty and dangerous. They think laws should be made to forbid people to keep dogs and cats in cities and towns. The different opinions on keeping pets, which reflect personal preferences, have caused many disputes and much unpleasantness among people who are close neighbors. Personally I do not like pets. But I think we should learn to respect the rights of pet lovers. We have no right to forbid people to keep pets in their homes, as long as the animals are properly taken care of and do not threaten the safety and peace of others. 翻译 【作业要 求】: 单句翻译（英译汉） Directions:In this section you are required to translate some English sentences into Chinese.
